I appreciate your responses. I have heard of the one hand on the back and one hand on the front being the best method for alli snappers. Is it true that common snappers have a better reach with their extended necks? I am primarily a crocodilian keeper, so the typical method with them, is simply avoid contact with their teeth at all costs. I have heard of lifting snappers with their tails, but I hear that this can damage their spine...so I dont wish to hurt an animal, especially if it's going to be kept in captivity.

Thanks for the help!

Oh yeah, I viewed that post you directed me to. That is an amazing snapper!
